I am not a fan of the 4k restorations of "Mad Max" and "Mad Max 2".
The color timing is not accurate, all three films had a yellowish / brownish tint (like Disney's "The Rocketeer" on Blu-ray).
1 & 2 are too pale, purple and grey looking, the australian sand is almost white, Mad Max 3 is correct.
The DVD of "Mad Max 2" was better (but only the color).

Eh, people assumed they were 4K because of something they heard about Warners adopting a 4K-by-default outlook a few years ago, when the actuality is that Warners use 4K for their biggest restorations just like any other major studio, but their new transfers for catalogue titles are routinely 2K scans off of IPs.

All I can really hope is that someday there's a re-release of this trilogy with some actual extras for Beyond Thunderdome, with the deleted scenes at the very least. Since I highly doubt they'd do go through the effort to make a separate collector's edition for Thunderdome alone.

There's a pretty damn good "Making Of" documentary for Beyond Thunderdome which got produced at the same time as the film itself (probably for TV broadcast), but it's never been included in any official release. There were two versions produced -- the shorter, 35-minute version can be found on YouTube, but the longer version cannot be:

okay, for the FIRST movie it's MGM's bat and ball, but not for MM2 and Thunderdome last time I checked. Still, Warners are going to be releasing Mad Max 1 on UHD in Europe so we'll have to wait and see what they do with that one...
